The Macmillan Mammoth Quiz organised by the Macmillan Oundle committee first trialled in 2009 when nine quizzes were held in the Northamptonshire and Peterborough area, raising £6,400 for Macmillan Cancer Support. From this success it was decided to try to grow the event year on year building up to a Guinness Book of Records attempt in 2012, the Olympic year.

The Macmillan Mammoth Quiz has been incredibly successful and the total raised since the quiz began in 2009 is £262,914.
